Miller time for Raiders

IRVING – Dallas strong safety Gerald Sensabaugh did a great job against Atlanta tight end Tony Gonzalez five weeks ago.

That’s a good sign for the Cowboys considering the Raiders have one of the league’s top young tight ends in 23-year-old Zach Miller.

The third-year player from Arizona State leads Oakland with 34 receptions for 495 yards (a 14.6 average) and has three TDs.

“He’s establishing himself every time he goes out as one of the better tight ends in pro football,” Raiders coach Tom Cable said. “As (QB Bruce Gradkowski) gets more comfortable with him, his play will just get better.”
